AiT Semiconductors introduces the A6141 series, a family of positive voltage output, low power consumption, and low dropout voltage regulators. This series is designed to enhance power management in various electronic devices, ensuring efficiency and reliability in battery-powered applications.
The A6141 series stands out with its ability to provide a 150mA output current even when the input/output voltage differential drops to 400mV (VOUT=5V). This performance is complemented by features such as foldback short-circuit protection, thermal protection, and an output current limit function, enhancing the regulator's durability and safety.
One of the key advantages of the A6141 lies in its remarkably low power consumption, with a mere 2.5 uA (microamperes) quiescent current (Iq). This feature significantly extends the natural life of batteries, making it an ideal choice for battery-powered equipment.
Offering versatility in voltage output, the A6141 can provide values in the range of 1.2V to 5.0V in 0.1V steps. Additionally, customization on command is possible, providing flexibility for specific application requirements.
The A6141 incorporates essential components, including a high-accuracy voltage reference, error amplifier, current limit circuit, and output driver module. With a well-designed load transient response and favorable temperature characteristics, the A6141 ensures stable and reliable performance in diverse operating conditions.
Utilizing trimming techniques, the A6141 guarantees output voltage accuracy within ±2%, contributing to its precision in voltage regulation. The regulator is conveniently available in the SOT89-3 package, catering to ease of integration into various electronic devices.
Applications for the A6141 series span a broad spectrum, including battery-powered equipment, power management for MP3 players, PDAs, digital cameras, mice, PS2 games, and as a reference voltage source regulator following switching power operations. AiT Semiconductors' A6141 series establishes itself as a reliable solution for power management needs in the ever-evolving landscape of electronic devices.
